Great review as always.
I picked up one of the ZPacks CF tarps a couple of months ago and really love it. The CF is really light!
Thanks again o' guru of the video world. . .

Y'elcome.

But, honestly I can't believe they aren't giving you gear for free. Your reviews have to be making them money... I am in marketing... Want me to negotiate something for you? ;-)

A GPS costs more and wont keep me dry!
I just like to help out friends..... some give me candy.

Is it long enough to cover your WBBB Shug ?

It more than covers it...10' 10" ridgeline.

Awesome job on the intro btw. I have friends that went to film school and their videography skills aren't even that good.

I am loving seeing through it.....jury is still out on ultra-sunny days.
Thanks on my back-woods hillbilly camera moves.

I was trying to figure out the shape of the tarp. It looks like the doors can be closed down without pulling inward like on a typical rectangular tarp. Does that mean it is longer on the bottom sides then the ridge line? I was also wondering why the OES tarp weighs more. It doesn't seem like it is that much bigger. Nice tarp, definitely want one.

It is cat cut. Shaped similar like the old Speer winter tarp.....very long bottom. Different weight cuben used but Stormcrow could answer that better.

Great Review Shug.
I really enjoy my new CF HG tarp.
The weight savings are great, and I love the coverage with doors.
Hope to use it a bunch on the AT soon
I still have not had the nerve to try your "Spin Cam" yet.

They are magnificent! My camera is on it's last legs.....

old woman walking - but she worked hard and saved her money whoooo buddaaay!!
we loves ya Shug!!

Very cool. you are really reducing that pack weight!!!!!
Old folks walking.....lighter!

I'm away from home right now with my gram-weenie spreadsheet, but I know that with the tarp, my tie-outs (I'm using 1.25mm Z-Line for that), bungees for the pullouts and doors (3/32" shock cord), Dutch's continuous ridgeline (forget the size of the cord, but one side is Dutch-Hook and the other is Tarp-Flyz) and a home-made mesh tarp skin, I'm still under 10 ozs for everything.

Supposed to rain during my trip, but am hoping to shoot some video anyhow, but I'll try to give a better answer when I get back.
